Using a AWD axle on a FWD Legacy?


Recommended Posts

The AWD axles has a smaller diameter, and will not stand up to the torque in the long run. It will break "prematurely".

 

Also, if replacing only one side, the difference in rotational mass will cause "torque steer". Gas it and it will pull to one side, let off and it will pull to the other side.
